 I know it's early but i just don't see what all the fuss is about with Wiggins. To me he's super Jeff Green. Which isn't bad. He's just not the best player in this class. Right now. You can see the upside and athleticism, but he's too passive for me.

 He keeps me wanting more. More of his game. Just like when I watch Jeff Green. It's like Shoot it Jeff! Be aggressive!

Still way too early to tell. Remember when people said Melo was going to be better than Bron after their rookie seasons? If Wiggins develop his game, he can be one of the best with his insane athleticism. But I agree, Randle and Parker looks like the better players by far so far.

  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
Jabari Parker has since his ESPN profile struck me as the 'you over-thought that' pick of the draft.

If he's taken anywhere after 3, someone over-thought that. Like Andre Drummond, or Brandon Roy.

Randle and Parker indeed have some polished offensive moves.

But Wiggins athleticism and potential (according to scouts) is off the charts.

I don't think you can go wrong with any of the three.

These 1 game judgements on Wiggins game are hilarious.  So many amateur scouts.

The guy is one of the best raw athletes I have ever seen right here.  His game can take time to develop.  From that base he has insane potential.

Hmm...

Hmmm?

I know I am one was well.  But what I can see is a guy absolutely fly down the court and have a blinding quick firsts step.  That all matters.  Athletes thrive in the NBA more than they do in college.

Judging their games from one matchup and saying "Meh" is very funny.  Both look great as prospects.

I used to think Wiggins was better than Parker, but then most of a game happened and now Parker is better than Wiggins.  Forever!

Hang on Wiggins just dunked.  And Parker may have turned his ankle slightly.  Wiggins #1, suck it Jabari worshippers!

Hahahaha TP.

Parker will always be second, because he plays for Duke.

If Washington gets that top three pick, they might.
